How Is the Round 3 Seat Allotment Decided?
Seat allotment in every round, including Round 3, is based on:
- The candidate's IAT 2026 All India Rank (AIR) and category rank
- The order of institute/programme preferences submitted during choice filling
- Seat availability at the time of that round, including seats vacated by candidates who did not accept earlier offers

After the Result: Accept, Float, or Freeze
Candidates who receive a seat in Round 3 typically have the following options, consistent with how earlier rounds of the 2026 cycle have been run:
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| Freeze | Accept the current seat and exit further allotment rounds; no further upgradation. |
| Float | Retain the currently allotted seat while remaining eligible for a higher-preference institute/programme in later rounds. |
| Slide | Stay within the same institute but remain open to a better programme, if available in a later round. |
Whichever option is chosen, candidates allotted a seat must pay the Seat Acceptance Fee (SAF) within the round's deadline to hold the seat. In the previous (2025) cycle, the SAF was reported as Rs 35,000 for general category candidates and Rs 17,500 for SC/ST candidates; the exact 2026 SAF amount for Round 3 was not confirmed in the sources reviewed, so candidates should verify the current figure on the official portal before making payment.
Important Instructions
- The result is accessible only through candidate login on iiseradmission.in - there is no public result page where you can check status using just a roll number.
- Missing the August 13, 2026 acceptance/reporting deadline for Round 3 can lead to cancellation of the allotted seat.
- The counselling process is entirely online except for the final physical reporting stage at the allotted institute.
- Do not rely solely on third-party websites for dates and fee amounts - always cross-check with the official portal.
